      Yeah, because they “didn’t have enough to make any appreciable difference.” I say similar things to people I don’t want to help but I don’t want to upset them. Sorry I don’t have time to do that, having one more person wouldn’t make that big off a difference etc.

      You may very well be right. And that exact reason is the only reason they didn’t send eggs. But I’m guessing their are more than that singular reason.

        exporting eggs does not seem to be possible at the moment because no market access negotiations have been held with US authorities. This can be a drawn-out process involving extensive inspections and studies.

        “Launching exports is not a simple matter since there are no agreed rules in place,” said Lehtilä.

          Again, those seem to just be excuses to my untrained political eye. As someone that fairly regularly deals with red tape, if the powers that be want to cut through the red tape they can and will.
